ceudmilefailte Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 3 hours ago, Scotty2Hotty said: That's positive. Against West Ham anyway he looked very good. Whats the stats saying to put you off? Got a season average of 6.47 on who scored who rate players on their contributions in games. He's good at finishing, scoring with his head and holding on to the ball. He is rubbish in aerial duels and contributes nothing defensively, the latter is a big no for me in international football even more so for a team as defensively poor as we are. Did he play well against West Ham? Touched the ball 18 times and completed 6 out of 10 passes. Involved in 4 attacking and 2 defensive areal duels and lost them all. He was dispossessed once and committed one foul. Was caught offside once. Only thing other than score he did was successfully take a corner.

Like I've said before plenty Bristol city fans blame the manager for negative tactics for his average season, there's also a few saying he has been effected by his best mate Alex Scott being sold to Bournemouth. Give the lad time , my gut feeling is he will be good enough for us though that's mainly based on what he is up against. I like the little McBurnie comment, whereas I think he is decent I'm not sure about the above average EPL😊 Fans of a club are far more likely to know how good a player is or can become so that's probably the best measure. I usually try and mix stats and fans ratings McBurnie has 4 goals and two assists in 900 minutes this season. Also been sent off twice mind you.

theabsentee Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Che Adams getting some abuse from the Southampton faithful online, he missed 2 sitters from inside the six yard box & they conceded a late equaliser . We've said it enough times good player but finishing is his weak point. Ross Stewart is back in training, too late realistically but if was to make it back into the team & bag a couple of goals in the league or play offs I think Clarke should seriously think about taking him especially if the squads too be 26.

BryanBlessed Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 As an unused sub again today, Patterson has to be a huge worry. If he gets little to no minutes before the Euros, Clarke can't possibly take him and will have to go with Ralston as backup to Hickey. We can only hope Dyche gets sacked. .

todd Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Remember when we used to be concerned with our players game time? Now we're apparently all concerned about their 'minutes' New buzzword/phrase alert, to be filed up there with 'final third' and 'decision making' 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theabsentee Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 1 hour ago, Scotty2Hotty said: Colemon OG too and loss so if he cant get in now then he is fucked Most fans say he should be at worst 2nd choice behind Coleman , they really don't rate 38 year old Ashley Young or Ben Godfrey but unfortunately Mr negative Dyche is the only opinion that seems to matters . No doubt the lads confidence is at a all time low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres still time & if not with his club the 2 June friendlies for him to find a bit of confidence, I wouldn't give up on him for the summer just yet.

I really don't think a couple of friendlies are going to make the difference. There's definitely a player in there but the Euros is too soon if no more game time.

If Patterson gets no game time before the end of the season his confidence remains shot and cannot play in the Euros. If that is the scenario, as looks likely, then Patterson gets left at home and Anthony Ralston goes as back up if Aaron Hickey is fit of course.

Tartan blood Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 25 minutes ago, Scotty2Hotty said: Patterson has been picked by Clarke in pretty much every squad he has picked so can't see him suddenly dropping him. There's others not playing regularly for club teams that will 100% be going to the euros too Plus, it's not like Ralston is playing every week either. Patterson and Hickey will be our choices. Ideally a fit Hickey as our first choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Move on. If we end up with 26 man squads, I can see there being 1 surprise. Barnes and Fraser would give us the width we lack if going to a back 4! The one we probably need is Livramento should Hickey not make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His scoring record this season is the same as two of our forwards but he's at a higher level. There's an argument for a call up there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
